Here's the details of a bug that I turned in last year which causes my 650 to "crash".
Hopefully this gets addressed in the next update as it is frustrating to no end.

Paul, you've asked the list to send you any errors / descriptions offunky behavior that we encounter. I've already sent you a generaldescription of these problems on 10/13, and I will go into more detailhere.
General Problem: My 650 quits responding to midi when Isend midi cc's to control aux1. When I say quit responding I mean thatthe output jacks do not transmit a signal - the midi LED still respondsto midi. One of two things happens once the 650 is in this state.
1)If I perform the following actions, then the 650 begins to respond tomidi again (however it will lock up again if I send midi cc's to aux1)
-Press "ESC"
-Scroll to, and then select, "Module Actions"
-Scroll to, and then select, "Load Patch"
-and finally, load a patch
2) If I don't follow the steps above, I get various assert errors depending on different buttons that I press
-L612: I get this error when I press "Enter" after a lockup
-L2039: When I press "Inc" after a lockup
-L2167: When I press "dec" after a lockup
-L548:First I press "ESC", which allows me to scroll through the top levelmenu, then press "Enter" on any of the second level menu items
My 650 is setup as follows:
-Global options:
1) Voice Type - 1/1/1/1
2) CtrlMidi Chan - 1
3) Trig PWM - 10ms
4) VelScale - 8 Volts
5) Backlight - Auto
6) TunTable - 12 Tone
7) Note Inv - Off
8) Priority - LastNote
9) Clock - Internal
10) IClk BPM - 120.0
11) Midi Clk - Transmit
12) Patch Rx - Disabled (I also tried enabled, whatever that does?)
13) SysexSys ID=Global
-VoiceGroup 1 Settings:
1) VG1 Midi Chan - 1
2) VG1 Allc - Solo
3) VG1Glide - Off
4) VG1PBend - 24
5) VG1GType - Normal
6) VG1 V/T - Velocity
7) VG1 Aux - CC12 (Tried others as well with the same issue resulting)
8) VG1AuxSc - 8 Volts
-VoiceGroups2 - 4 are set up exactly like group 1 except that the PBends are set to0, and the Aux Midi CC's are set to different values (13, 14, 15).
-Both Arps are turned off.
∗∗This also happens in other other voice modes as well 4/poly1, 4/poly2, 2/2/poly1, etc.......
Ireally hope this gets fixed in the next patch release because havingone of the 4 aux outs messed up sucks. Other than this problem, the 650is a pretty cool module.

Hopefully Jeffrey will step in and give us an update. I have not heard from
him in a while.
Meanwhile: the majority of the issues are using external clock to drive the
arpeggiators and using Voice Group 1/1/1/1 (4 independent MIDI channels).
The Voice Group
bug seems to be if you change from/into 1/1/1/1 mode. I think if you ∗start∗
there (the default patch) you are OK.
I have not heard of any other bugs/crashes except in these 2 cases. If
anyone has other bug to report, please do so.
